Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
B
4430
S n = 3 + 8 + 16 + 27+........ +t n
S n =3 + 8 + 16+ ........ +t n-1 + t n
Subtracting, we get,
0-3 + 5 + 8 + 11 +........+ (t n - t n-l ) - t n
t n = l + (2 + 5 + 8 + 11+ ......... n terms)
= 1 +
(4 + (n-l)3) = l +
(3n + l)
S n =
t n =
l +
n 2 +
n
